Fat Face
Awake to the Rhythm: Unveiling the Soul's Journey in AWOLNATION's 'Fat Face'
Lyrics
I walk to the rhythm of the rhythm of your heart
I synchronize my steps with the beat of your heart's rhythm
You ain't saying nothing 'til your mama falls apart
Words or actions only matter when your mother experiences distress
But I'm awake
Despite challenges, I am conscious and alert
I walk to the rhythm of the rhythm of your heart
Reiteration of aligning movement with the rhythm of the heart
But I'm still bitter at the bullies in the park
Harboring resentment towards those who bullied in the park
But I will wait for you
Expressing patience and willingness to wait for someone
(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh)
Vocalization representing an emotional or melodic element
I walk to the rhythm of the rhythm of your heart
Continued synchronization with the heartbeat's rhythm
I'm casting a shadow but I'm down to play the part
Casting a shadow metaphorically, ready to assume a role or responsibility
But I'm awake
Despite challenges, remaining conscious and alert
I walk to the rhythm of the rhythm of the sea
Now walking to the rhythm of the sea instead of the heart
A memory full, but the soul is incomplete
Recalling memories, but feeling a sense of incompleteness in the soul
But I will wait for you
Reiteration of patience and willingness to wait for someone
(Ooh, ooh ooh ooh)
Reiteration of emotional or melodic vocalization
No grace, faking on the floor (ooh, ooh ooh ooh)
There is a lack of grace, insincerity on display on the floor
Fat face, swallow me no more (ooh, ooh ooh ooh)
A plea for relief from the burden represented by a "fat face"
No grace, faking on the floor (ooh, ooh ooh ooh)
Reiteration of insincerity on the floor, lack of grace
(With this) fat face, swallow me no more (ooh, ooh ooh ooh)
Seeking freedom from the weight or pressure of a "fat face"
No grace, faking on the floor (ooh, ooh ooh ooh)
Repetition of the theme of insincerity on the floor
(This) fat face swallow me no more (ooh, ooh ooh ooh)
Continued desire to be free from the burden of a "fat face"
No grace, faking on the floor (ooh, ooh ooh ooh)
Reiteration of lack of grace, insincerity on display
(With this) fat face, swallow me no more
Seeking liberation from the burden represented by a "fat face"
